If you do
something bad, I’m going to call the bogeyman. He lives underneath your bed and
just goes out, when you are not behaving well.

I`m sure you`ve
heard this story at least once, or maybe every Halloween, after eating all your
sweets and candies.

Do you know
that most children believe that the bogeyman doesn’t exist, and this story is
not real?—“No way!” you’d say, just because you are scared. So let me warned you then. If you’re brave
enough to keep on reading this story, there are three things that you must
learn and please, learn them by heart, because one day your life may depend on
them:

1.The bogeyman is real.

2.The bogeyman is a monster.

3.The bogeyman is a brave monster.

Our story
starts at Hollows’ eve when Dany didn’t want to go to sleep because Emma, his
big sister had told him a story about the bogeyman. After that Dany was so
scared that everything put his hair on end.—“ARGHHHHHHHH!” shouted the boy,
when he found a spider on his plate.—“It’s just a toy!” laughed her sister full
of joy.—“You’re such a silly little boy!” So Dany went to
bed, feeling bad for being afraid.

It was a dark,
windy night with no moon or stars. As soon as Dany got into his bed, it started
to rain. The thunderbolts lighted the dark, filling the room with shadows.—“They’re
just tree branches” repeated Dany, with his head under his blanket.

Suddenly, a big
dark shadow appeared from underneath his bed. The shadow crawled to the outside
pulling apart all the toys that lay beneath the bed, forgotten. The creature
got up, turn its immense body to be in front of the bed and with its monstrous
hand grabbed the blanket and uncovered Dany.

And there was that, a gigantic monster, so
tall that it had to bend his neck down to fit into the room. Scared to death
Dany closed his eyes hoping that when he opened them the monster would not be
there. But the monster was still there, looking at Dany with a funny grin on
its face.

“Hello little
boy!” said the monster in a musical way— “How are youuuuu?”

The monster started to make noises and grins,
like his granny does when she sees a baby at the park.

The monster told
Dany everything about him. His name wasn't obviously monster, neither bogeyman,
not even whatever you are. His name was Valiant and he lived in a town called
Black Cat Valley, where all magical and mysterious creatures you’d ever heard
off lived together. But what surprised Dany was what the monster said
next:

“All the
monsters that lived there are good”

“But why are
you carrying a sack?” requested Dany pointed at his hand.

“This?” Valiant
held the sack up and laughed hard.—“This isn’t to keep any child in it. We use
this to keep away all the bad dreams”.

Valiant
explained that all the creatures that lived in Black Cat Valley had the same
job. They catch all the nightmares that came from the shadows and put them in
the local dump ground outside the village.

“Wow! You’re
like a superhero” said Dany impressed.

“Well I’m afraid,
I’m not” Valiant laid down his head. He felt truly ashamed. “I’ve never cached
a nightmare because I’m always scared of them. — My friends always make fun of me
for that reason. They say I’m a coward, a chicken and other bad things I deny to repeat”.

“Why don’t you
change your job?” asked the boy. — “Isn’t there anything you would love to do?”
Valiant looked at Dany and smile because no one had ever asked him that. No one
had ever asked him what he wanted to do or what his dream was.

Valiant told
Dany that he wanted to be an Inventor. He loved creating things from nothing
and making them work. Long ago he created a radio and he sometimes uses it to
hear all the stories about witches, fairies and monsters. Trough that radio
Valiant could hear Emma’s story about the Bogeyman.

Valiant knew very well how it feels when you’re always
afraid and for that reason he wanted to meet the boy. To make him see that
there is nothing to be scare of.—“We just look scary to terrify the nightmares”
affirmed Valiant. —Dany believed
what Valiant said and he wasn’t longer afraid. Indeed he wished to know more
about Valliant’s world.

“Are there also
Zombies?”

“How does your
town look like?”

“Do you
Celebrate Halloween? Or Christmas?”

Valiant
answered every question patiently. Telling Dany every detail, but it was the monster who at the end made a question, an incredible one.

“Dany … it's against the rules but... do you
want to come and see my home?”

“YES!” said
Dany almost shouting.

Dany put his
coat on, while Valiant place the bed aside. Then, Valiant said out loud the
magic words that would open the door to "the world below”.

“OPEN KRAPUM!”

Suddenly, a
spiral stairs made of gold appeared, making a hole in the floor. Dany couldn´t
close his mouth as they were walking down them. There were at least a billion
stars lightning the way. It was like walking through the universe.

After some time they reached the ground and, at
the entrance of the village there was a signboard that said… “Welcome to
Black Cat Valley, have fun and make trouble”.
